I dunno, those times seem pretty good on a stock turbo. *shrug*
I still have my SRT, and it's still for sale. I don't want to be rid of it, but
I gotta trim the fat...
I'm seriously considering the move out of the US myself. But where to go? The
job situation isn't any better in Europe than it is here. And when you do get a
job, watch out for cost-of-living expenses... whoo! There are hundreds of
thousands of young, college educated people in Europe still living with their
parents because they can either not find a job, or, when they do, they can't
afford their own place. I wonder what the job situation is like in Costa Rica.
:P
Oh, and I've looked in Dubai, but it seems my experience level is not quite high
enough for a real living wage there, either. heh Something about high wages and
no income tax (and not being HERE) really speaks to me, though. ;)

Politicians are like diapers: they need to be changed often, and for the same
reason.

I haven't been around in awhile, thought I would check-in.
SRT-4 is running good, boost problems thought prevent me from
improving on the 12.74@... I ran at Famoso and the 13.06@... I ran
at Pomona for the last ever NHRA Sport Compact event Finals. Those
times ran with the stock turbo in place.
I have been S3R since March but haven't really had time to sort out
the reasons why I don't see much more boost then I did with the stock
turbo.
Outside of that, nothing special going on, just waiting for SEMA
Show. I believe this will be the last year under the Pep Boys banner,
I had planned on leaving the company when I take my vacation to Europe
last winter (march/april) and spend 10-12 days in Europe looking at my
options for being an Expat.
Yep you heard correctly, I don't like the way the direction the
country is going, plus the fact I would like to get married and have
children there's no way I can do it on a Pep Boys salary one, two and
health care cost of skyrocketed, so until we have a social system much
like most of Western Europe, I think I need to hang out in Western
Europe for a few years.
Nothing is locked in stone yet, but in any event I do want to spend
another extended stay in Europe like I did in 2007.
Well just keeping in contact.
